One man and one dog, wandering in the world of Monster Hunter

The next morning, when the first ray of sunlight shone through the gap in the tent onto Link's face, he woke up leisurely.

"Yeah, it's a nice day."

Link muttered to himself, he sat up and stretched himself, then opened the tent curtain, walked out of the tent and looked at the plain below the camp.

The two monsters that Phyllis had scared away yesterday gathered by the water again.

The raccoons were strolling leisurely, their round bodies swaying with each step, which was extremely cute. Link was so jealous that his saliva almost flowed out.

The prototype of this creature is the famous infrastructure maniac, dam engineer, beaver.

It is a protected animal in China. If it were in his previous life, Link would definitely not dare to eat it. If he ate it, he would have to go to jail and pick up soap.

But when he came to the other world, there were not so many requirements. He could eat whatever he wanted.

The Animal Protection Bureau does not have the ability to enforce the law across borders.

He returned to the tent, took out the heavy crossbow, skillfully assembled the folded heavy crossbow, and returned to the place he had just viewed.

The camp is located at a commanding height, so there is no need to look for sniper points specifically.

Link found a flat ground, placed the heavy crossbow on the ground, crouched down with his body pressed against the cold ground, took out a regular bullet magazine from the ammunition bag and stuffed it into the magazine of the heavy crossbow.

The muzzle of the crossbow was aimed at the ignorant raccoon beast.

The one Link picked was a raccoon that was basking in the sun. The raccoon was lying lazily on a boulder like a salted fish, exposing its snow-white and soft belly. Link felt guilty if he didn't shoot it.

With a bang, Link pulled the trigger, and the loaded bullet, propelled by gunpowder, instantly hit the raccoon beast, knocking it far away.

The power of the bullet was incredible. The raccoon's body drew an arc in the air, then fell heavily into the grass, motionless.

The surrounding raccoons were startled by the sudden loud noise and jumped up, looking around vigilantly.

But they did not notice any danger, so they slowly relaxed their vigilance and returned to their original positions.

As for the companion that flew away, it was a normal phenomenon in their eyes.

The raccoon beast is a silly and cute monster. The ignition fluid in its body will explode if it leaves the body. Occasionally, one or two of its companions will eat too much and burp and get blown away. This is really normal.

Only a maru bird that was drinking water was startled, laid an egg, and then ran away.

Marubird is a timid creature that lays eggs when frightened. It looks like this Marubird was frightened by the sudden take-off of the raccoon.

Killing two birds with one stone, this was something Link had not expected.

Seeing this, Link put away his heavy crossbow and jumped directly from the high cliff. Three or four meters above the ground, he released the Kinsect that he had prepared long ago. The Kinsect hovered in the air, and the silk thread shot out from its tail wrapped around Link's arm guard, hanging his body straight in the air.

From a distance, it looked like a corpse hanging in the air.

This is one way to use the Kinsect, hovering in the air. The principle is similar to bungee jumping. When jumping from a high place, the elastic force of the silk thread is used to relieve the potential energy of falling.

A few seconds later, as the silk thread broke, Link's suspended body fell down. After landing, he rolled over to relieve the force of the fall.

The Marubirds and Tanuki beasts around saw him, stepped back cautiously, and gathered with their compatriots to look at him.

Seeing that he didn't seem to be a threat, they ignored him and drank water or basked in the sun. A curious raccoon came over on its own initiative, but after being kicked by Link, it ran away.

Then Link swaggered and picked up the Maru bird egg. The egg was very big, so he had to hold it with both hands to prevent it from falling to the ground.

Holding the egg, he waded slowly across the river. The water reached over Link's knees, bringing a hint of coolness.

Back at the bottom of the cliff, Link looked at the vine-covered cliff several dozen meters high in front of him and fell into deep thought.

"Damn, every time I hold bird eggs and dragon eggs, I get a headache when I see this cliff."

The camp is built on a high place, which naturally has its pros and cons. The bad thing is that every time the hunters bring back some valuables, it becomes a problem how to climb up.

When she came down, she had nothing in her hands, but she performed great stunts. When she went back, she held the bird eggs in her arms, climbing the cliffs like a pregnant woman.

Fortunately, it was not the first time, and Link was not a novice. He was very nimble and skilled in holding the egg in one hand and climbing with one hand. He quickly returned to the camp holding the bird egg.

Then he ran again and carried back the deflated body of the raccoon, and the ingredients for today's breakfast were ready.

As usual, Milu was responsible for picking vegetables in the fields, while Matsutake was lazy and sleeping.

Link first dragged the raccoon to a mountain spring and carried out a simple dismemberment process, cutting off its head and tail, skinning it, removing its tendons, and hollowing out its internal organs. He left the tail and body behind, and cleaned them. Except for the ignition liquid that could serve as a combustion aid, which he put in a container, he buried the rest of the unwanted parts on the spot, where the powerful microorganisms underground would soon decompose them.

The fat in the body of an obese raccoon is very rich, making it a great ingredient for fried food. However, it is so greasy that it is difficult to swallow for breakfast.

But when paired with Maru bird eggs, it's completely different.

He first cut the beaver fat into small pieces, put them on the stone slab used for the barbecue last night, and melted them over the fire.

The fat slowly melts into oil, emitting an enticing aroma.

Link gently cracked open the Marutori's eggs, poured some of the egg liquid onto the stone slab, and used the fat from the raccoon to make fried eggs.

The egg liquid slowly solidifies as it is heated. Turn it over when appropriate and fry until both sides are golden brown.

After making the fried eggs, there is still a lot of egg liquid in the eggshell. Add appropriate amount of water and put it directly on the fire to bake.

Whole bird eggs are natural cooking pots and are perfect for making egg tea.

Link doesn't like to eat raw food, so the egg tea must be boiled before drinking.

The water in the egg pot slowly boiled. Link picked up a homemade bamboo chopstick, gently stirred the egg flowers in the pot evenly, and removed it from the heat.

After the egg tea cooled down, he added some honey to make it refreshing and delicious.

The fried eggs and egg tea are ready, and then the raccoon meat and tail are fried. The raccoon's tail is very short, but very delicious. They like to wander around, so their tails often shake. The trained tail tastes especially good.

The raccoon's tail can be cut into small cubes and does not need to be marinated. The stone slab used for frying eggs does not need to be washed and can be used directly for frying meat.

It takes a low fire to fry the raccoon's tail. Link first fries the tail in oil until all six sides are golden brown, then adds a little bit of coarse salt. The aroma of fried meat fills the air, attracting the sleeping Matsutake to look up.

"Woof, what's burning so early in the morning? It smells so good."

Every time we have a meal, the greedy dog Matsutake is always present.

He smelled the scent and came over with his eyes closed.

"Go away, go away. This tail meat is not enough for you to eat in one bite. You can eat the steak later."

Naturally, he had to keep the delicious food for himself. Link drove the Matsutake mushrooms away to play and continued with the work at hand.
